The ongoing project series consists of finding Earth life lines and spots, and building structures to mark harmony with nature and raise consciousness about egocentric, artificial and eccentric use of human inhabited land.
The medium is local available materials. I look into a few critical characteristics of the object, like relative scale and distance to the surrounding elements, easy path and flow of energy currents, to be or not to be iconic mega super egocentric real need at a psychological dimension, color, light, material harmony and contrast, etc…

Untitled Perishable Lightning Rod
Genu - 2016
Ghirdoveni Art Installation
Ludic and Oneiric interpretation of a high raise inhabited building. I imagine here the mix of fear and excitement. Fear of structural soundness against the joy and excitement of inhabiting an architectural skyscraper. Thus, I call this mixed feeling “Untitled Perishable Lightning Rod”, this being one of my artistic studies about Space-Time-Conscience relations and Perishable States of Matter and Mind in the context of Life synergy.


Ghirdoveni 2015
A study of the very short and volatile manifest nature of smoke and plasma fire sparked by the direct action and awareness of the artist, and sustained by the presence of the universal field Conscience and Earth Ley Lines. The field of mind determining the shape and dynamics of smoke and fire and amplified by the direct placement on a ley line.
